Medications administered are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid dependent clients. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment facilities in Burson are programs who are officially permitted to give out the medicines used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements.
